Div shared a lot of her resources which were super useful and she patiently answered all of my questions. Her suggestions were helpful and gave me an idea of where I need to start.

Did one session with Div so far and she was super supportive, knowledgable and had many great suggestions for me to run with. I'm looking forward to continued sessions with her and highly recommend her!

As a product marketer, I had a fantastic conversation and connection with Div. She listened to me patiently, offered valuable guidance, made me feel understood, and shared some excellent resources too. I highly recommend reaching out and connecting with her.

Bio

I translate complex tech—like Data, Analytics and AI—into simple narratives that drive growth. Whether we are speaking to developers or C-level, I focus on the value of the platform or portfolio.With 15+ years in B2B SaaS, I’ve helped drive $100M+ in revenue by building the enterprise "GTM engine". Accomplishments: - Adoption: At Dell Boomi, I orchestrated a unified platform narrative that grew customers by 120% (5k to 11k) and scaled PMM team 3x in 18 months. - Scale: At Lenovo ISG Services, I led a global team of 25 people across 10 countries (services marketing and portfolio management) to unify our infrastructure software, hardware and services portfolio offerings. - Innovation: I built PMM agents in Gemini Enterprise to automate persona, competitive intelligence, and messaging. ---------------------------------------------------- Leadership: I am a neurodivine, mindful leader. I believe teams do their best work when they feel supported, and encouraged to be their authentic selves. My Ikigai is fostering a high-performing mindful culture built on work-life harmony. ---------------------------------------------------- How I give back to my community: - Educator: Shape the future of Product Marketing by sharing industry best practices and PMM frameworks to 1,000+ practitioners (Product Marketing Alliance). - Mentor: Top 1% Product Mentor on ADPList (300+ mentees across product, marketing and design).
